After a prolonged effort lasting eight months, BTC finally managed to surpass the coveted price level, however, Bitcoin experienced a decline on Friday as bulls struggled to gain traction in response to the Federal Reserve’s repeated hawkish tones, which hinted at additional rate hikes and likely at a faster pace.

The same has been voiced by some of the other experts in the market. il Capo Of Crypto, a well-known crypto analyst and swing trader who goes by the Twitter username CryptoCapo, has stuck to his opinion regarding the likelihood of Bitcoin retracing back to the levels of $12,000.
Like I've said several times, bear market show people's true colors. And in the end, market (and life) humbles everyone.
12k is still likely imo.

BTC Price Analysis
An examination of BTC’s on-chain analytics revealed a number of factors that aided the bears and contributed to the current price drop. For instance, according to CryptoQuant, the exchange reserve for BTC was growing, which indicated that there was a higher level of selling pressure. In the midst of the bull rise, Bitcoin’s aSORP was red, which suggests that more investors liquidated their holdings to make a profit. Furthermore, in the previous twenty-four hours, there was a drop in the open interest for BTC that was greater than nine percent — which was another critical bearish indication.
Additionally, it should be noted that BTC’s technical analysis (TA) indicators at CoinGape’s crypto market tracker recommend a buying opportunity as summarised by the moving averages which suggest a “buy” at 15 and “sell” at level 2. As things stand, the price of Bitcoin (BTC) is currently trading at $24,677 which represents an increase of 0.65% over the past 24 hours, in contrast to a gain of 13% over the last seven days.
